Pentax K7

April 27, 2009

pentaxk7There’s been a lot of buzz for the past couple of weeks about a new Pentax body named “K7″ – at least that’s what everyone thinks the name will be.  It won’t be an upgrade to a K20D, but rather a new line of semi-pro DSLRs from Pentax.  It is said to be much more advanced than a K20D and is a lot more compact.  This is quite good news for all of us with heavy lenses.

I was really planning on buying the K20D soon but am now holding out until this summer to see the K7.  This whole thing just tickles my fannies!  Everyone thought Pentax was doomed but I found it hard to believe since they really had some very good glasses.  I doubt anyone can compete with the quality the Pentax Limited lenses produces – yes, not even from the CaNikon crowd.  There’s just no beating Pentax when it comes to Prime glasses.  And plus, I have always been told that it’s not the camera that makes the picture but the one holding the camera (as evident in my photographs!)

Good on you Pentax!  I’m proud to call myself a Pentaxian!
